09 Mar Kante given all clear for Palace clash after passing out

Chelsea midfielder N’Golo Kante has trained all week after passing out in the dressing room last Friday.

Blues head coach Antonio Conte says the France midfielder is in contention to play in Saturday’s Premier League clash with Crystal Palace after missing last Sunday’s loss at Manchester City as a precaution.

Kante was immediately tended to by doctors after fainting in the changing room following a training session in freezing temperatures in Surrey. And Conte insists there have been no ill-effects this week.

Conte says N’Golo Kante is fine, in good form and has trained all week. #CHECRY
